The first leagues ID is 88884 and the password is "tapology" all lower case.  @Soccer will post the second leagues signup information when he sets the league up.  I believe changes can be made to scoring up until the draft (1st league Mon. 8/27 @9pm EST).  This scoring setup is my favorite as it allows for numerous ways to build a successful team.  The PPR and 6 point passing TD's help balance the scoring across all positions. 

After each league ends in Week 16, the winners and runners-up in each league will face off here on Tapology for the overall championship and the points that @Gregory will hopefully be so graciously providing again this year.

@Cash, I'm all for creative team names.  I changed my name on Yahoo to my Tapology screen name last year, but I'm sure there will be individual threads for the two leagues after everything is locked in.  We'll put who's who in the OP of that thread.

I was debating whether or not to keep my original tapology moniker or go with something cleverly disgusting, like Peyton'sManThing or Favre'sPrivateJet. But then I said to myself, that might be a tad bit offensive and slightly ****erotic. And frankly, being the wholehearted noncontroversial tight-nit community that this site is, I wouldn't want to stir the pot in anyway. So instead, enjoy my vanilla team name :)

Looks like things are up and running as far as the leagues.. just waiting on everyone to join their respective league. Lets start talking about the scoring.  Does anyone have any questions, comments, concerns and/or suggestions after looking at the template that @oldman posted on Page 1?

@Kalibo hey im just adding my two cents.
i would like Passing TDs to go back to 4 points (QBs are already very valuable).

also, would like for the PPR to be like 0.5 or 0.25
one point is too much imo.

i also dont like flexes, 3WR 2RB

Flexes are ******* awesome. but i second the passing TD and the PPR idea. I hate drafting QBs early...hate it.

also my team is Curryman Cares, every fantasy team I do has the moniker Curryman in the team name, I just do it idk why. couple of my previous team names include: Gridiron Curryman, Curryman Wins, Curryman's Ballin, Curryman Is Awesome, Curryman's Buying (for an auction league), Team Curryman, Curryman's Team, Curryman Made You Tap (for the superduper awesome league) and Curryman's Internet Sucks ('cause i d.ced in the middle of the draft).

My opinion...  keep the flex player, Passing TDs should be 4pts and I think a 1pt PPR is fine, but whatever we decide is fine too.  People will just have to adjust their draft strategies accordingly.

QB is the most important position in football...they should be the most valuable in FF as well!
